The Neptune In The Signs.

Because Neptune spends about 14 years in each sign, the
meanings do not have a distinct personal meaning (except through distinguishing groups of
people from groups of people born in other Neptune signs. They do, however, have a
distinct personal meaning in relation to the Houses and Aspects.

The dates are approximate, partly because Neptune goes out and back in a sign during
periods of retrograde. For a given human, there are some people with these configurations
that we will never meet! The time it takes to complete its journey around the sun is
approximately 168 years!

While such planets do not have a distinct personal meaning
for people born in the group, they do have a personal meaning for all of
these people in the group.

Your imagination can be fired with energy and urgency, creating an impressive person.
You may be a religious person who seeks to convert others, making peace not war, but
really war, in a religious way. You inspirational (fire) and active (active sign). And you
are not afraid to start things which are fired with your imagination. In a negative way,
you may be deceived in matters which you find exciting and passionate. However, you have
the potential to dissolve barriers related to the self and achieve beyond the normal.

When you dream, you dream in a refined manner about possessions, perhaps clothes in
particular, but also perhaps food. You are not easy to get going (passive), but once you
are, you may find it difficult to stop dreaming (fixed sign) about matters such as
romance. When it comes to personal property, you might find it hard to be clear about what
you want. Nonetheless, you are practical (earth) in your fantasy life and about what you
dream. You have the ability to overcome obstacles related to personal finances and achieve
more beyond the normal boundaries.

You tend to refine matters in a versatile and variable way, particularly in areas
concerning communication, education, child care, etc. You may idealise education and
communication, and you may dream of being an expert communicator or teacher. You may also
tend to be deceived in these areas, because you are so impassioned by your ideals and by
your dreams. You are likely to get on well with people because you believe in the basic
good nature of others. In areas of thinking and communication, you can achieve beyond the
normal boundaries.

You refine in an instinctive and protective way matters to do with the home, or base,
in its widest sense. Your imagination and dreams relate to the home, your group, your
country, or even matters related to the development of yourself and your life. You may be
caring about your roots and family. Your origins may be matters that fire your
imagination. Overall, you are likely to be emotional about these matters and be protective
over them. You are also likely to be deluded by some of these beliefs, if you do not keep
control of your emotions. You can potentially break down and dissolve unwanted early
experiences, family traditions and ethnic origins and attain more than would normally be
expected (Neptune, water). You may be able to do this because of your powerful imagination
(water, Neptune) where you can create new experiences.

You may be able to create impressive and creative worlds of an imaginary nature, for
instance impressive fashion, film, theatre, entertainment in general and amusement. You
may be almost a hypnotic influence, causing others to disappear in your dreams and
imagination. You are inspirational (fire) in a magical way. And you are a loyal friend,
perhaps even believing in universal love.

You tend to be idealistic about matters concerning work, health and nutrition. You may
have an idealistic view of serving your fellow humans, and be very sensitive to their
problems in these areas. You may be so idealistic that you fail to see the reality in the
noble worker, the noble healer and the wonderful effects of good nutrition. You are
versatile and adaptable in relation to these areas and you tend to be critical of those
who do not hold your views (but not directly to them). There are difficulties between
being idealistic and imagination and being a detail person (Neptune detriment). You may
sometimes concentrate on isolated details and make them seem very profound out of context.
You can dissolve problems related to being too critical and to being too obsessive about
details, and be successful in this area.

You tend to be diplomatic and harmonious in a refined way in relation to others. You
may dream about matters related to fashion, music and peace. You may believe in universal
love between humans (Neptune). You may have notions about freedom and justice (Libra) and
equality. You may be involved in forming (cardinal) new idealised relationships between
others. Some people in this group take comfort (Venus) in drink or drugs (Pisces). By
dissolving issues related to interpersonal problems, you can achieve amazing results.

You and people of this age, tend to dream about matters of a secret and profoundly deep
nature in an intense and passionate way. You may be interested in a strong way in matters
to do with mysticism, hypnosis and sex. You may wish to get involved in religious or
cultish organisations and share your deep held beliefs or searching for profound secrets,
such as those related to life and death. You may be interested in matters related to
spirits, UFOs, vampires, and other uncertain and vague phenomenon. You should avoid a
tendency to believe in things just because they are mystic and profound. You may
experience conflict between one part of you that is intensely selfish (or possessive of
others) and another than is self-sacrificing. You may be able to refine this differences
by dissolving the deep hidden issues into universal oneness.

You refine knowledge and philosophy (discussion and belief) in a free and tolerant
manner. It may be you distil the essence of knowledge so it is mystical and uncertain.
There may be a tendency to believe in a free manner, without using the critical
facilities. You are very sensitive to matters related to freedom, especially in foreign
lands and with foreign people. You are very tolerant, but this may be because you fail to
see certain details and become entranced by your noble dreams of a better world. Yet, you
do have a powerful ability to overcome these problems, and achieve a powerful solution.

You refine, in a prudent and reserved manner, matters related to power, control,
success and fame. You dream about becoming powerful and rich. You may, however, be
somewhat confused about the process of succeeding, perhaps neglecting the work and
details. People in this group take an interest in the glamour business or the helping
professions. If you are taken up by your imagination, it is likely that you manage to put
even crazy ideas to a practical and profitable use, making money out of them in the
process.

You tend to dream, dreams of freedom and independence, unconventional dreams
(Aquarius), but you are not deterred. You can be idealistic about anyone who tries to
reduce freedom and independence, and even rebellious towards the. You are fiercely loyal
to your beliefs and to your friends (fixed). You can appear somewhat eccentric to the
other generations, and you may acquire associates who are cranky and artistic, perhaps
musicians. You are sensitive and idealist and sufficiently passionate (fire) to carry
implement your ideals and aspirations.You may do this by breaking down conventions and
overcoming barriers in an unusual way and with unexpected results.

You refine matters to do with religion, service and self-lessness in an impressionable
and inspirational manner. You wish to serve, not just in a physical way, but in a
spiritual way, your fellow humans and to transcend the barriers to forming one nation of
humans. There can be a saintly, self-sacrificing attitude. In your search for religious
ecstasy, you should guard against being deceived by drugs and alcohol. You can refine
these damaging tendencies and turn them into means of helping others and into ways of
transcendence.
